Summer Is Ending

The winds of change are a comin' ... cooler breezes in the air ... goodbye summer '09.

They Are

Their bitterness keeps their minds closed

Their anger keeps there hearts locked

Their disallusionment keeps them isolated

Longing to have a discussion

Longing to reach an agreement

Longing to establish relationship

How long, O Lord?

How long?

Frustrating Business

I woulda fired their b***s right from the start -

woulda saved months of grief and upset.

It is ALWAYS better to be honest and up front with people right from the start!

Wasting Time

Funny how the things that seem so important one moment turn out to be so trivial in the big scheme of things. We fret and we fuss over this and that, the things that seem crucial at the moment, we even argue with friends, family - lovers.

Tell me ... isn't life more valuable - more precious- than all of the stress caused by a few fleeting moments?

First day of classes

myPie called and has been to two of his three classes today. He seems to enjoy them so far.

He had a Duh! moment today as well as he sat his laptop down on the desk and it began a scan for wireless networks - bam, it found one. His RA who lives right next door. "You know Mom" he said, "I didn't even think about getting an Airport Extreme and going wireless."

We bothed laughed at that one - some Computer Science major he's going to be!!

Youth

Totally upsetting.

When things get so completely out of hand;

overwhelmed by feelings

mad, distraught, rejected.

How do we fix such a mess?

Moving Day

Well, we left this morning at around 8:00 a.m. and made it to Virginia Tech at about 1:00. The traffic was horrendous! We finally found Washington (the road that passes in front of Miles Hall) but it was one way NOT the way we were heading so we drove to the far side of the Quad and parked my car and then took PT (which had all of his stuff except the guitars) over to near the Stadium and found a place to park. Everythink unloaded and up to this room and settled (not unpacked but settled).

Nicole (myPie's best friend) got to her dorm room about 3:30 and so after about an hour he headed over there to see her and we came here to our hotel room. It's a really nice hotel and it's right by Cracker Barrel (which is where myShelb wants to eat) so Ted just left to get Pierce and Nicole so that we can eat there. Fun since it's raining cats and dogs right now and the roads are a bit floody.
